Thank You

Happy Valentine's Day and welcome to a new challenge here in the Sisterhood.  Micki here and I will be your host!

Yes, I know today tomorrow is Valentine's Day and love is in the air, but today is also a perfect opportunity to take a moment to THANK someone.  Actually any day is a perfect opportunity to THANK someone but it sounded good :-).

So the challenge for this round is:

  THANK YOU  

Come on, one can never have too many THANK YOU cards, tags or gifts.  And to get your creative juices flowing,  here is what the Sistah's came up with:

Dar

Lisa

Tanis

Micki

Now show us your THANK YOU project.  Remember, it can be anything as long as the theme is clearly followed.  

You have until Sunday, February  24th to link up your creations.  
Winners will be announced on the 26th.

Please remember to follow these few simple rules:

• No backlinking
• Three (3) entry limit
• Must follow challenge theme to qualify for prize (when one is available)
• Direct link to your challenge entry ... not your entire blog

Good luck!

WOW! Feelin' the Love here at the Sisterhood.

Once again you ladies amaze me!  Lisa B. here to pop on in and announce the winners of our HEART challenge.  I am in complete awe and amazement of soooooo many creative and beautiful projects that were submitted for this challenge.  I got so many great ideas and inspiration from you all.  You really are a bunch of talented women.  I am honored that you shared your creations with us here at the Sisterhood.  I know you probably hear this a lot but you ladies make it really hard to choose.  We only pick three plus top Sister, but so many more of you are deserving.  I want to personally thank each one of you for playing along with us these past two weeks.  I can't wait to see what you have to share with us for the next challenge.

Now on to the hard part.  In numerical order the Sisterhood Top Three awards go to:

#25 Dr Sonia

#74 Bethie

#115 Kim 

And the Top Sister goes to:

#69 MANDY

Ladies grab your badge from the sidebar and display them with honor.  You surely deserve it!  

I am not sure all of you have noticed but we now list two challenges at a time that are coming up.  This Wednesday we will be having our Thank You challenge.  Tune in Wednesday the 13th for all the details.

Only from the heart can you touch the sky.

Hello to all our wonderful followers.  This week it is my turn, Lisa B to host our next challenge. I would like to say first that the entries we received for the last challenge blew me away. I was in awe of so many beautiful and crafty creations.  Excellent job!!

Now on to our next challenge. With Valentine's Day coming around the corner we decided to do a challenge based around hearts. It doesn't have to be Valentine's Day.  It can be anything with a heart on it.  I would like to give a shout out to our Sistah' Diane who puts together all these wonderful challenges.  She thinks of some fabulous themes that we need to create something for.  Thank you, Thank you!

Here is some inspiration projects from our DT to help your crafty gears turning. We can't wait to see what you come up with.  It is always a joy visiting everyone's blog to see their entries.  Keep them coming!
